It is the science that studies bodily functions, that is, how the various parts of the body function, (physio-, from physis = nature; -logy, from logos = study), In other words, it is the study of biological function how the body operates, from the molecular mechanisms within cells to the actions of tissues, organs and systems, and how the organism as a whole carries out particular essential tasks. The word anatomy comes from the Greek and is composed of the adverb (ana-, from aná, meaning through; up, - and the verb tomía, from tomée meaning cut or incision) Originally, it was studied from dissection (dis-, from dis = separate; -section, from sectio = cut), The combination of these words formed the term anatémnein, meaning to cut from top to bottom and also to dissect. The origin of the word anatomy is not random, since the basis of this science consists of dissecting cadavers for study. Those who study any branch of biology must study the anatomy of their objects of study, whether human, animal or even plant.
